Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro for a cause

Our newest addition to the team of Onsea House and Machweo is Operations Manager, Ms.Eline Janssens, who will attempt to climb Mount Kilimanjaro, which at 5.895 metres is the tallest mountain of the African continent.

It will be a 7-day expedition, following the Rongai route and starting off on the 24th of February.
Eline dedicates her climb to a dear friend suffering from Multiple Sclerosis.In association with her climb, she is organizing a small fundraising, to support the non-profit foundation AGDEM (Asociación Gaditana de Esclerosis Múltiple), located in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain.
Multiple Sclerosis, also known as “MS” is a chronic disease of the main nervous system that causes uncontrollable contractions of the muscles and therefore causing terrible pain. It is the most common neurological disease for young adults and the main cause of disability after traffic accidents.

The foundation AGDEM helps and assists people afflicted with MS, not only with rehabilitation but also with pshycological support, research and training activities.The rehabilitation treatment they offer is of great value in improving the quality of life to those affected by MS and is necessary during their whole lives.
You can support this non-profit organization in order for them to continue their precious work with any contribution you are willing to make
